I was wrong
“I was wrong”
I love being wrong, it’s the gateway to new knowledge, but other people view not knowing through a self-esteem lens
I love you. :'(
- “Thank you”
- “My bad”
- “I am not familiar with the subject so I have no opinion on it”
On point number 3, I once got dunked on for saying that I didn’t know anything about the subject at hand when asked. The other person told me “Well, that’s just a cop out. Just make something up!”
edit: clarification
Could we adresse this point in a separate meeting with relevant people ?
Smoke weed every day
I was wrong.
Everybody wants to hear that, nobody wants to say it.
Too much to ask, pure fantasy
‘moist’
My son has you covered. He calls me a “moisty boi” something like 100 times a day. I’m still not sure why other than it being some kind of dis.
Here’s how it is, spoken by Malcolm Reynolds.
I petition to bring back regular use of Kerfuffle.
Same for dust-up.
I’ll sign that petition no doubt
Hot diggity dog, let’s strike while the iron is hot and get on the ball while it’s rolling with some old tyme phrases.
“Wow isn’t life great since we went to the 3 day working week!”
“lambasts” or “pillories” instead of “slams” in news headlines
How about “threw Mankind off Hell In A Cell, and plummeted 16 ft through an announcer’s table” instead of “slams”
lambasts
Lambastes?
Verisimilitude. It’s just nice.
It’s a good word! How would you use it in a sentence?
Poorly! As I’m currently high and do not feel confident using it correctly!
Looks cool though!
I’m less high now!
I normally use it when talking about miniatures and toy train setups.
“The miniature painted conifers with bits of snow really have the scene verisimilitude”
I could still be very wrong.
Do you mean the simulacra gave the scene verisimilitude?
Very likely! Even when not high, I use words wrongly! Very very wrongly.
The general meaning is the appearance of truth or validity.
But I usually use it to describe something that is “believable” even if the underlying premise is not. So a fantasy story that pays close attention to detail and is highly consistent might be described as having versimilitude. On the other hand, a story where the characters make out-of-character choices might be lacking versimilitude, even if there are no overtly “fictional” elements to the story.
That’s usually how I’ve heard it used, not sure if it’s the “main” usage though.
The novelist’s meticulous attention to historical detail—from the cadence of 19th-century dialogue to the texture of hand-stitched corsets—lent her story an uncanny verisimilitude, making even the most outlandish plot twists feel hauntingly plausible.
“Hi nice to meet you I’m your soulmate and future wife and I’m going to fix you and we’ll help fix the world together”
(i mean if someone said that exact phrase to me I’d probably run screaming lol. But you know.)
